On the way to Kunyue City, Xu Jingxuan heard the news that Xiao Shifeng was under house arrest in a disguised form. At that time, he was staying in a small farmyard. After hearing the news from Chen Ping, he pondered for a moment and sighed leisurely: "Maybe fair enough."

In the Jinfeng Hall in the palace, Xiao Shifeng has not left the Jinfeng Hall for half a month. From the initial anger and anxiety to the present calm and decisive, his heart gradually calmed down.

At first, he couldn't accept Xiao Shihong's behavior of putting him under house arrest. He escaped and struggled, but all failed, and he understood that Xiao Shihong was determined to deal with Xu Jingxuan.

When he calmed down, he recalled Xu Jingxuan's half a year of waiting, from his triumphant return, from the marriage granted by the former emperor, to the emperor's brother's ascension to the throne. go out.But when he was doing these things, Ah Xuan didn't make any demands on himself. He said he would not get married and he just said it.

He said he believed it, but in fact, he didn't believe it.

However, what he said was true, Ah Xuan just didn't believe it.

This sudden house arrest messed up all his escape plans, and Xiao Shifeng suffered from a headache. All he can do now is to wait for the opportunity and make up for it.

So, he asked the guards outside to send a message to Xiao Shihong, saying that he had something to say to the emperor.

Two days later, Xiao Shihong came to the Jinfeng Hall, and seeing that Xiao Shifeng's spirit had returned to normal, he said, "Ah Feng, have you thought it all over? The emperor is all for your own good."

Xiao Shifeng seemed a little decadent, as if he had accepted the cruelty of reality, and said: "Your Majesty, my younger brother is already a prince, and Prince Feng's mansion outside the palace has also been built, and my younger brother will get married before the Mid-Autumn Festival. Decoration, I'm afraid it will wrong the concubine and offend Ningguo government."

Xiao Shihong took a sip of tea, looked at the man who accepted his fate, and said, "Ah Feng, have you really figured it out?"

Xiao Shifeng smiled lightly, his eyes were full of sarcasm, and said: "Your Majesty, my younger brother is in this palace now, and I can't leave him every step of the way. There is nothing else I can't figure out, but marry a woman. But, after my younger brother gets married, my younger brother My brother wants to go to the fief immediately, the emperor also said that my brother has no intention of fighting for power, but just wants to be an idle prince. If the emperor trusts me, the frontier defense in the northwest is the only thing my brother can do for the people and the emperor. Setting the fiefdom of my younger brother in the northwest, I think I also have this intention, for the rest, please forgive my younger brother for being powerless."

Xiao Shihong pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "I can promise you to leave the palace, but you'd better think it through."

Xiao Shifeng got up, stood with his hands behind his back, looked through the layers of palace walls, looked at the entire sky, and said: "If the emperor is worried, it happens that my brother's Prince Feng's mansion has just been established, and there is a lack of guards. Why don't you trouble the emperor to take care of you?" The younger brother is worried."

After talking so far, Xiao Shihong felt relieved.

"Okay, you can leave the palace in two days. The queen mother misses you a little, so go and see her when you have time."

"it is good."

After the two settled, Xiao Shihong left the Jinfeng Hall, and ordered Li Lin, the personal guard beside him, to say, "Select a group of guards for Prince Feng's residence."

Li Lin bowed and obeyed.

Xiao Shihong said again: "Li Lin, what has your younger brother been up to lately?"

Li Lin suddenly raised his head slightly, and then realized that Chao Yue hastily lowered his head. You must know that Xiao Shihong is already the king of a country. With his status, it is impossible to ask him about the daily life of a younger brother of a guard for no reason. The only thing worth asking is nothing more than Because his younger brother Li Lin is Prince Feng's confidant and has just returned from Xu Jingxuan's side.

"Back to the emperor, Li Lin has not left the Jinfeng Hall since Prince Feng was in the palace after he returned to the palace." Li Lin replied truthfully, but he was sweating for his younger brother in his heart. Fortunately, he did not change anything. .

Xiao Shihong said coolly: "It seems that he is guarding against me after all."

If not, how could he even abandon his cronies?

Li Linneng has always been in Xiao Shihong, and he is also very well-measured and capable. At this time, he couldn't help being curious, and replied softly: "Your Majesty, Prince Feng..." When the words came to his lips, he Looking carefully at Xiao Shihong's face, seeing that he didn't care, he continued: "Your Majesty, did you really let Prince Feng out of the palace like this?"

Xiao Shihong glanced at Li Lin coldly, and said, "Li Lin, sometimes a single mistake in a person's mind can lead to eternal catastrophe."

Li Lin was agitated, knelt down hastily, kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, the slave made a mistake, and the slave overstepped."

Xiao Shihong waved his hand, not to blame, and said: "It's good that you understand, and restrain your family. As for Prince Feng, if you don't put the bait out, how can you catch big fish?"

When Xiao Shifeng wanted to leave Jinfeng Hall again, he was not stopped and walked to Zhilan Palace.Since the first emperor abdicated and the crown prince ascended the throne, the original concubine Jinggui was promoted to be the empress dowager concubine. As the emperor's biological mother, she undoubtedly became the most honorable woman in the palace.

However, after the Supreme Emperor moved to Taiji Hall, he was closer to Zhilan Palace. In his old age, the friendship he never had when he was young, because of the convenience, Xiao Mingyi got closer to Concubine Jingtai.

When Xiao Shifeng entered, he was surprised to find that Xiao Mingyi was also in Zhilan Palace.

"I send my respects to the Supreme Emperor and the Supreme Concubine."

"Get up."

"Feng'er, why haven't I visited my mother for a long time? I really don't want to stay here. Seeing that it's not the day of the wedding, I put my mother aside. Come, come and sit next to my mother." After his son became the emperor, as the biggest winner in the harem, Concubine Jingtai became more graceful and luxurious, and her smile was softer than before.

"Mother, how dare Feng'er, isn't this here to pay her respects?" Xiao Shifeng enthusiastically sat next to Concubine Jingtai, and chatted with his mother about the daily routine of the day. Of course, the theme still revolved around the upcoming wedding.

Xiao Mingyi watched the interaction between mother and son coolly from the side. Concubine Jingtai is a woman in the harem, and her only reliance in this life is her son. She doesn't know much, but she has good luck and fate, and lives freely and freely.

And his eighth son, coaxing his mother to be happy at this moment, felt in his heart, tsk tsk, Xiao Mingyi felt a little sympathetic to his son.

Because of this sympathy, after a while, Xiao Mingyi waved to Xiao Shifeng, and said, "Feng'er, come here and play chess with father."

Xiao Shifeng was like a godsend, he wished he could get out of the irritable topic as soon as possible, and when he heard his father's call, he cast a grateful look, and met his mother's eyes, and sat opposite Xiao Mingyi.

Concubine Jingtai can have her current status. Although she doesn't know astronomy and geography, she can't recite poems and paint pictures, but she is gentle and careless, knows how to read words and looks, and can always make people feel comfortable. When she sees her husband calling, she quietly retreats. He also ordered the people in the palace not to disturb and do a good job in logistics.

Xiao Mingyi said that he wanted to play chess, but it was just an excuse.

Xiao Shifeng's treatment for more than half a month, although he has abdicated from the Taiji Hall, can the affairs in the palace escape his discernment?Not to mention this small palace, the affairs of this world, as long as he wants to hear, he can still hear it now, it just depends on whether he wants to or not.

If he had been in power before, he would not have cared about the prince's mood, but now that he has abdicated and has someone to continue the throne, his attitude towards his children has changed.

"Do you feel wronged?"

The five cold words, asked in Xiao Shifeng's heart, were like a big stone hitting his heart hard, and his nose was a little sore at this moment when he had a strong defense.

"My son, I'm not wronged." Xiao Shifeng answered with a choked throat.

Xiao Mingyi smiled, he couldn't see Xiao Shifeng's pretending to be strong, but he still had to say: "If you don't feel wronged, that's fine. The relationship between you two brothers has always been very good. I have paid close attention to you, but I have always been very pleased. Now that Honger is on the throne, you are a prince and controlled by others, do you feel that there is a big gap, do you feel that the good emperor brother has changed?"

Xiao Shifeng lowered his head and nodded sullenly.

Xiao Mingyi's words suddenly turned sharp, and he said sternly: "It is said that the royal family is ruthless. This is not a hypocritical lie, but a bloody legacy of how many royal families have fought against each other. You are all princes, and I will give each of you a chance. It's the same, since you have chosen to be a prince and choose today's path, even if you are on your knees, you have to finish walking!"

"Everyone has his own way to go and his own place, even the emperor, he also has his position and difficulties. You don't understand how to let others sleep peacefully on the side of the couch! If you are now If you feel wronged and feel that he owes you, then you will have a harder time in the future, and you brothers will have a harder time."

"Of course, since he has his position, you also have your own life, it depends on how you fight for it!"

"Now that you have come out, go back and think about it carefully. How can you go better and better in the future."

After saying this, Xiao Mingyi looked at his son's lost head, and without giving him a chance to defend himself, he directly threw him out of Zhilan Palace.Since he abdicated, he has become more and more soft-hearted. In the past, he didn't have the leisure to give advice to such an elm head!

The world is safe and secure?

I can't let go of this, and I can't bear to let go of that. I am in a dilemma, and I am restrained from front to back.

In the end, I'm afraid of hurting others and myself.

In the final analysis, it is still too much affection, which is the strength of Lao Ba. At this moment, a bad thing will become a fatal weakness.

Xiao Shifeng came out of Zhilan Palace with his head down, and suddenly a ray of light shot from outside the palace. He instinctively raised his hand to block his blurred eyes, and watched the sunset glow that covered the entire sky like fire, like a phoenix bathing in fire. brilliant.

I remember that one day, that person was beside such a person and said to himself: Ah Feng, I like you, you are happy.

He was suddenly blessed, and the knot in his heart suddenly became clear.
